Cliff notes...
Ronald Greene leads cops on high speed chase. When he's stopped by a tree he holds his hands up and attempts to apologize to the cops. Cops stun, drag, choke and beat him to death. Cops cuts the mic on his bodycam early. LPD refuse to release the video for 2 years. They tried to claim at first Ronald died from hitting a tree. They later changed their statement he died because of "struggling" with the cops. Recently obtained body cam footage show exactly why he dies.
Read the article and watch the footage as to how Ronald died.
